Living Lent Generously

As we approach the start of Lent, we often first consider what we might give up – habits, comforts, distractions. However, at its heart, Lent is not only a season of sacrifice, but a season of return and recognising again that God moves towards us with extraordinary generosity.

In Scripture, Jesus shows us what this looks like, the Samaritan who crosses the road to help someone, the Saviour who gives himself completely so that we may have life. Lent invites us to slow down and notice how God is already close to us: in grace given when we felt we didn’t deserve it and in those small moments of kindness that arrive just when we need them. These are the quiet ways that God tells us that he is present. When we recognise God’s generous heart, Lent becomes less about giving things up and more about transformation.

If God moves towards us with generosity, then we are invited to respond in a similar way. The early church personified this – sharing meals, meeting needs, opening their homes and giving sacrificially so the love of Jesus took visible shape in their communities. What if we embraced this during Lent? Rather than simply giving something up, we could choose to give outwardly: more attention, more compassion, more patience and the courage to stop rather than walk by. Living Lent generously means letting God’s generosity flow through us – helping someone to feel seen, safe and comfortable. As we journey towards Easter, may this be the season where we rediscover that generosity isn’t just something we do – it becomes who we are.
